In a cross-party endorsement, Clute endorsed Republican candidate Jeff Miller over his Democratic opponent Richard Roth in the general election to decide the District 31 seat.[1] Clute came in third in the top-two primary election on June 5, 2012 for the seat.[1] In the endorsement Clute said, "Although our party of preference means ideologically we may not agree on every issue, one thing I know is Jeff Miller will stand up for Riverside County. Voters can trust that Miller will stand up for us when it comes to ending government waste; funding our local schools and most importantly getting our local businesses growing again. In these difficult times, supporting the best candidate is more important than party preference."[1]
